Longing for a Solid Pint

Say what you will about Nevada Smith's, they pour a real pint. They may serve a college / banker crowd most days, but the vibe is strictly about football and the pints are strictly Imperial. Service is great, they purvey British Crisps, just don't get caught up during game time or after finals.

At The Table


So, now having moved to the nesting grounds of Park Slope, it is time to give an update on some of the Imperialist Haunts in this neck of the woods. First up is Beer Table. A haven in the neighborhood for craft brews of all sorts. Reminiscent of Williamsburg's Spuyten Duyvil, Beer table boasts one of the most extensive menu's in the neighborhood.



Seasonal drafts are served in proper Imperial Pint glasses (thank god), a welcome respite from the trend that has seemed to overcome it's northern neighbors. Food is solid all around. Small plates, both dinner and dessert fare. A little on the pricey side, but worth it for some serious drinking. Images courtesy google and beerlord.com.
